00:00Welcome to the vineyards of Versailles.

00:03The most beautiful in all of Champagne.

00:08My darling, I think we might have found the secret to perfect happiness.

00:13I am hopelessly, unequivocally yours.

00:20Francois willed the vines to me because he knew I would never sell.

00:24I will be continuing to care for them myself.

00:27Wine is a very difficult vocation, my dear. You underestimate what it will require of you.

00:31I know what it requires. I've been in fields for years.

00:34You have one chance. One.

00:37These fields do not need replanting or starting over again.

00:41I disagree. They need to struggle to survive.

00:46I want our Champagne to have structure, depth.

00:52I do admire you trying to run things as you want, as a woman would.

00:58If we lose these first shoots to frost, we lose the harvest.

01:01No one can force me.

01:04A woman is not capable of running this vineyard.

01:07When I have proceeds, I will send them to you.

01:10A woman is forbidden to run a business under the law.

01:13Her vineyard should be placed in the hands of an experienced executor.

01:17Was this the plan all along?

01:19No, madame. It never occurred to them you would succeed.

01:23So many obstacles ahead. So much at stake.

01:27But there is hope, however unpredictable.

01:32Your instincts have always been so good. Why won't you listen to yourself now?

01:36I don't want to.

01:40No one can sell abroad due to Napoleon's embargoes against his enemies.

01:44I want to stay ahead of him.

01:45Of Napoleon? So you're a criminal at heart?

01:49Human beings are compelled to create, to lay down our lives, however best we can.

01:57It is so that we might uncover the secrets of ourselves.

02:02And that with any luck, 100 years from now, someone will know that we were here.
